Fleetwood Isle Paddle Steam Ship Steam Ships Steamer
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment the Monas Queen paddle steamer begins its journey from Fleetwood, Lancashire, towards the Isle of Man in 1890. The Monas Queen, a historical steamship and a proud symbol of maritime transport during the Victorian era, is shown leaving the English coastline with a plume of white smoke billowing from its stacks. The steamship's elegant design, with its ornate decorations and tall funnel, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company operated the Monas Queen, providing regular service between Fleetwood and the Isle of Man, making it an essential link for travelers and goods between the two locations. The journey across the Irish Sea was a popular one, as the Isle of Man offered visitors beautiful landscapes, a unique culture, and a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of urban life. The Monas Queen's departure from Fleetwood was a sight to behold, as crowds gathered to wave goodbye to friends and family members setting sail for the Isle of Man. The steamship's powerful engine would propel it across the sea, providing passengers with a comfortable and exciting journey. The sense of adventure and anticipation is palpable in this photograph, as the Monas Queen embarks on another voyage to the Isle of Man. This historical image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steamships were the primary mode of transportation across the sea. It is a reminder of the rich maritime history that connects England and the Isle of Man, and the enduring allure of the open sea.
